Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | 4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets The Company’s goodwill balance of $909,000 and $1,084,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, relates to the purchase of NTN Canada, Inc. Fluctuations in the amount of goodwill shown on the accompanying balance sheets are due to changes in the foreign currency exchange rates used when translating NTN Canada, Inc.’s financial statement from Canadian dollars to US dollars during consolidation. The Company performed its annual assessment of goodwill impairment for NTN Canada as of December 31, 2015, and it was determined that there were no indications of impairment. The Company performed its annual review as of December 31, 2015 of its other intangible assets and determined that there were no indications of impairment for the year ended December 31, 2015. During the Company’s annual review for the year ended December 41, 2014, it determined that certain fully amortized acquired intangible assets no longer had an economic benefit to the Company, and therefore, it disposed of these assets as of December 31, 2014. The weighted average remaining useful life for all intangible assets is 1.6 years as of December 31, 2015. Amortization expense relating to all intangible assets totaled $50,000 and $181,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, intangible assets with estimable lives were comprised of the following:
